What are turned parts?
Conventionally, turned parts are machined components that are cut using a lathe. The lathe holds and turns the part on a central axis during machining to create precise rotational forms with symmetry.
Technology has taken this basic wisdom and added to it so that parts that can be machined now include milled forms, cross drilled and tapped holes, and broaching.
Examples of turned parts include:
- Spacers
- Hose tails
- Connectors
- Screws, bolts or other threaded components
- Nozzles
- Housings
- Spindles
- Adapters
- Axles
Complex components require precision manufacturing to ensure proper functioning and compatibility. Using conventional and CNC lathes, Wilco achieves precision to extremely tight tolerances and our turned parts are used in a wide variety of industries. These include automotive, hardware, leisure, electrical, yellow goods, plumbing, marine, HVAC, telecommunications and much much more.
